"Hi! I‘m following you on Instagram for a long time and I really feel kind of inspired by your work! After having the amazing Leica Q I now think about doing the next step and getting a Leica M. As you too wear glasses I really would like to know if you had ever had any bigger issues with focussing on the M?"

"I just thought I would like to say I have found two of your recent articles particularly enjoyable and instructive - not least read in combination. The "Composition - what lens are you?" was relevant to some struggles with a recently acquired X2 where the focal length feels strange, and the article, and especially the images, from page 20 of your never-ending M9 review made me feel "Yes, 50mm is more my lens for a fixed prime." This was just a brief thank you."
